  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Supporters claim that asynchronous, non-blocking code can be written with async/await that looks almost like traditional synchronous, blocking code. In particular, it has been argued that await is the best way of writing asynchronous code in message-passing programs; in particular, being close to blocking code, readability and the minimal ...

  3. Ajax (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_(programming)

    Ajax (also AJAX / ˈ eɪ dʒ æ k s /; short for "asynchronous JavaScript and XML" [1] [2]) is a set of web development techniques that uses various web technologies on the client-side to create asynchronous web applications.

  4. XMLHttpRequest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMLHttpRequest

    XMLHttpRequest (XHR) is an API in the form of a JavaScript object whose methods transmit HTTP requests from a web browser to a web server. [1] The methods allow a browser-based application to send requests to the server after page loading is complete, and receive information back. [2] XMLHttpRequest is a component of Ajax programming.

    The differences between the two languages are more prominent than their similarities. Java has static typing, while JavaScript's typing is dynamic. Java is loaded from compiled bytecode, while JavaScript is loaded as human-readable source code. Java's objects are class-based, while JavaScript's are prototype-based.

    See Promise/A+'s list for more implementations based on the Promise/A+ design. For Java: JDeferred, provides deferred-promise API and behavior similar to jQuery.Deferred object [67] ParSeq [68] provides task-promise API ideal for asynchronous pipelining and branching, maintained by LinkedIn; For Lua: The cqueues module contains a Promise API.

  7. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callback_(computer...

    In computer programming, a callback is a function that is stored as data (a reference) and designed to be called by another function – often back to the original abstraction layer. A function that accepts a callback parameter may be designed to call back before returning to its caller which is known as synchronous or blocking.

  8. Direct Web Remoting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Web_Remoting

    In the asynchronous model, result data is only available some time after the initial call is made. DWR solves this problem by allowing the web developer to specify a function to be called when the data is returned using an extra method parameter. This extra method is called CallBack Method. The value returned from the java function will be ...

  9. Comet (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_(programming)

    The browser makes an asynchronous request of the server, which may wait for data to be available before responding. The response can contain encoded data (typically XML or JSON) or Javascript to be executed by the client. At the end of the processing of the response, the browser creates and sends another XHR, to await the next event.
